Not quite reflecting the current situation in Czechia/Prague but most of the elements are still here. I suspect that the Foreign Police are a little more organised, but their decisions can still seem somewhat arbitrary and everyone has a horror story to tell. As a retiree living here, life is simpler, I don't have to work so all that hassle goes over my head... Ms Weiss highlights all the good bits too, the beer that is cheaper than water, and the fact that bacon is considered a vegetable. I had a good laugh at some of the characters and situations, though sadly without first hand experience of this lovely city, most of it will be lost on the casual reader, but isn't that always the way of it?
